Just heard on PTI that Leon, the guy from those Budweiser comercials, is now playing minor league ball in Schamburg. Apparently he wants a shot at the Majors. Tony thinks its a publicity stunt

He also said he played ball at University of Florida, but they have no memory of he ever being there. I wonder what possesses these players to lie about stuff like this, thinking no one can research this stuff. Reminds me of former Mariners OF Al Martin saying he played football at USC... when he didn't.

Did Leon go to the George O'Leary Center for Résumé Composition?

Haha, that's also another funny story. You really have to wonder why George O'Leary thought having a masters degree would make it easier for him to get a football coaching job. I maybe wrong but I don't think people like Urban Meyer or Ty Willingham are bragging about what masters degrees they have (if they have any), but instead what they've did on the field as a coach.

They did a story about this on the Final Word two weeks ago.
He's a pitcher.
Here's a thing from the Flyers website...
